For the moment there is no contract. So there is no reason we cannot vote for whom we like. I like Comcast.
This could change, up to voting time.
So, without a contract, what are we voting for? and who?
So, as you see the Great One has taken full charge of this election. So first he tells us, or rather leaks it, that the only applicant is Atlantic. Then Ed Grossman made his phone call to Comcast, and the next thing we hear is that Comcast is the preferred Vendor. Strange.
What is happening here is that David Israel wanted Atlantic, but then he looked at the Comcast offer, and so the preferred Vendor magically changed to Comcast.
But wait, where are the rest of the bidders? Should we not have at least 5 bidders? I don't believe there are no bidders that are interested. We are supposed to be a plum. There are others out there but if we leave it up to Israel to make our choices, we will lose our choices. Until we get a choice, vote NO on anything Israel brings up.
Now let's look at what is happening with CSI. This Company is hired as advisor. An advisor as to what Cable Vendor we should use and what we want and should insist on as far as amenities that should be provided.
But why should we limit it to only one (1) company. No! There are other companies there. They are salivating for the job. And I don't think we should not use them, we should, but the mistake is allowing D.Israel to be the only one to make the selection. That is wrong. The choice is ours, the delegate Assembly.
At this meeting one of these businesses explained what they can do. It was enlightening.
For instance, why pay $450,000 for a recommendation. It is available for a lot less. Who in his right mind signs a contract for almost a $1/2 million to recommend who to use and what to have them supply us with. Outrageous.
you need to read post on my blog and Dave's. Atlantic Broadband is the better deal. plus, you would probably get some control of the third channel being offed.
